The Citizenship Award


About the Award

Individuals must demonstrate contributions towards building a community atmosphere within the Faculty of Computer Science. For example, students may demonstrate this by contributing voluntarily to the life of the Faculty of Computer Science and/or the broader Dalhousie University community.

  • Being known as a congenial, reliable, mature person who is respected by peers and Faculty;
  • Exemplifying motivation and encouragement;
  • Demonstrating strong academic performance

Value: $1000.00
 

Students do not apply for the award themselves but, rather, are nominated by peers/faculty/staff. At least one letter of nomination must be submitted in order to be considered. In order to be considered, candidates must be in good academic standing and have been enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program for that current academic year. 

This award will be awarded at the annual Snowball Gala hosted by the Computer Science Society (CSS). Ranging from $500 to $3,000, these awards recognize just how important community spirit and social development are to personal and academic growth.

An announcement will go out each year about deadlines for submission.
